Sexual assault - reported 'DH'

[Flamingjunior]

Need a handhold please - where do I go from here. Have posted before about DH sexually assaulting me whilst asleep - I've woken to it several times and once again tonight. I cannot take it anymore.... I am devastated that he's do this continually. I asked him to get out of the bed, he refused. I have moved to a spare room and reported online (called 101 but was on hold). I feel sick. Sick that he's done this again... sick that this will ruin his reaction ship with his DC but I cannot keep letting it happen. My DD thinks the world of him..... what do I do? How can I tear her world apart by taking her and moving out?

If he was sorry he would realise and leave.
It's that simple.

Oh, you just order one online & he's out 5 minutes later, is that how it works?

I needed a SHL, a barrister, a court hearing & £3k to get an injunction to stop the man who was threatening to kill me from entering our marital home.

It took 8 days.

There is no excuse for PP's berating Flaming about this.

Still a lot of naivety bordering on victim blaming on MN. If people want to debate issues re policing, domestic abuse etc. maybe they can start their own thread.

He should not be living in the house with you, OP You say the police gave you options and it was your decision. They could surely have ensured that he did not re-enter the home as you and your DDs are living there if you had chosen that option.

I've already said in previous post I didn't want him stopped from entering his house. The DDs wanted their dad. I have seen some houses today, and will see some more tomorrow in between working FT. I am trying to do that whilst keeping the status quo for the girls as much as possible. In the meantime we are in separate bedrooms and functioning for the girls.

Thank you again everyone who has been supportive and amazing. Being able to talk in a safe space has been so helpful.

Really wishing you the very best OP, during a horrendously difficult time.

I wish you really well OP, and hopefully you'll soon have a safe space of your own so you can truly sleep at night.

Good for you Flaming, you sound so in control but I'm sure it must all be very stressful. You're an amazing mum keeping things on as even a keel as you have for your girls, they're lucky to have you 💐

@Flamingjunior - how are you?
